The Beautiful Human Poem by Gerry Legister

The Beautiful Human



Marred by our complex perception
An epoch of mist covers day and night.
Hiding from sight, the beautiful human,
Exist partly in darkness, and part light.

The personalities that our character draws
Defines the beautiful human of our terrain.
Being consumed, we concealed the flaws,
In that perfect moment of borrowed time.

No one saw the other images in the clouds,
Spacious and proud, floating out into the sky,
Lives trapped between the foreboding floods,
With volumes of personalities about to die.

Emotional attention wears the mask of fear,
Poison flames in deep places enduring pain.
A phenomenal stain quietly swirling in the air,
Rain tears to make a portrait of faces in the rain.

In dreams resides the blurry-eyed weather
The synergy of the future lies in human misery.
Excellency of proximity diminished forever
But in heaven, souls are covered in glory.

Freedom wants to break through the ruin walls
A virus holds mankind upon the altar of fear.
Caught in a tangled mess, hopelessness, calls
Our children to escape the terrors out there.
